And while mascara is awesome and can do wonders, we think that when it comes to adding drama to the eyes, it's all about the eyeliner.
In fact, a good eyeliner might be the most important eye makeup tool ever invented. When you have a good one, it can kick any mascara's butt on any day of the week. That's right, we said it. But before all you mascara-obsessed cronies bust out the pitch forks and hang scarlet letters around our necks, hear us out.
Yes, mascara will open your eyes and enhance your lashes. But for women with ho-hum lashes and small eyes (a complaint of oh-so-many), it's eyeliner that has the unique ability to add intense drama to the eyes. Heck, it's the eye-enhancing jack of all trades -- a great multi-tasker, effective eye brightener, and eyeshadow substitute.
Skip ahead to see the worst eyeliners now.
Now, it's important to keep in mind that we are raving about the stellar eyeliners of the world, not the ones that bleed, run, last for two minutes, or have zero pigmentation. We are in no way advocating the use of sucky eyeliners, which unfortunately can sneak their way into your makeup bag if you aren't careful.
So in an effort to have you fall deeper in love with good eyeliners, and steer clear of the bad ones that have failed women numerous times over, we've rounded up a list of the 10 worst eyeliners ever. Read 'em. Know 'em. Never buy 'em.

Don't care for how it makes my eyes look. I also tried a million times using on my waterline and it seems to collect quickly in the corners of my eyes. My eyes have a lot of water it seems.

I disagree with the lava eyeliner from too faced. I actually do enjoy the product, I just feel as if it is overpriced.

The Maybelline Waterproof Liquid Liner is the absolute worst! The brush has feather-like bristles that makes it hard to use and the formula itself has a thin, runny consistency. A total waste of money.
